'86ed for the second time in 3 weeks -- not a lucky 8/8/8 here. This is getting depressing -- '90s on Mondays, late-'80s on Fridays.
-
BOS Talking Heads to lead off though.
-
the next tune is either the Goat or World Party.
ETA: since it's the Goat, I can tell you that this set is pretty good. Not at all Katrina-laden.

but jeezus fucking christ! the Goat's "Bleat to Me" AGAIN??? We heard it in the '86 set 3 weeks ago too. WOS, natch.

Are you assuming this is a "classic"? -- the intro was new, I think the set is too. (Last week's was, wasn't it?)

It's a classic -- that's what the KFOG Promotions guy down at the 21st Amendment told me this morning during my barrage of questions about DM and 10@10.

Well cut off my legs and call me shorty!
I figured, since 21st-A is a stone's throw from KFOG, that Dave recorded a new show and that he'd hop in a cab for the backannounce. We usually don't get new intros (with current birthday wishes) for reruns.
-
"my *boredom's* getting bigger" too, Peter.
-
BOS to "Big Time," which nicely articulated how I felt about the tiny town I grew up in.
Noticing again how similar the sax in Jackson Browne's "For America" is to that in KBC's "America" a year prior.

I just can't hang for 86.

Hey Tink, how was it there this morning? Had you met DM and the morning crew before? Did you get on-the-air??

Last week's was like that. I just posted the setlist after checking.
This set was originally from May 10th last year.

ah feel yer pain! I may bail soon. So much for "not at all katrina-laden" ;)
Well, OK, BOS Simply Red, the arms of Mater and the wishes of Pater.

Not my favorite place in SF, but I had to go see those guys in person! Saw "Bjorn" the Air Guitarist (wow, I bet that was some good radio, huh?! -- it was pretty boring even in person), two li'l cute sisters read the Sleep Train commercial (alas, without the train whistle, which was prob been back at the Bone's studios), heard the live and local artist Austin Willacy do a song.
also, got some free coffee, bagels, Sans-a-belt soup ... and finally, Sled Pie.

Are you 'holding back the tears'??
-
VHM to "Holding Back the Years," which I sincerely thought was sung by an old black woman when it first hit the radio. And hell if my then-13-year-old brain knew what the hell "strangled by the wishes of pater" meant.

I don't know where that sprung out of, but TANC: I just played that as part of my someday-wedding mix yesterday!

21st Amendment pt 2
I was mostly standing over near the door, which was where I got the promotions guy's ear for a bit. Didn't talk to any of the Morning Quartet: It didn't seem like the right time or place to ask those question we all want to know: Does Benson force you to play crappy songs during those 80s and 90s sets? Why are the KFGO deejays awesome when most of the current playlist bites ferociously? did Annalisa teach kindergarten and/or elementary school?
Didn't get on the air, was just satisfied seeing them do their thing in person for a while. I work a few blocks away, so it wasn't a huge deal to stop by. I don't think I would've gone too much further out of my way to see it, however.

BOS2 Stones at their most playful. Earl (of "Bob & Earl", who did the orig "HS") died recently. But I still wonder about whether referring to "monkey shines" in a song about Harlem is racially questionable.
BOS3 VH.
-
VHM to "Harlem Shuffle," for my money the last time the Stones mattered.

I didn't know that - thanks. Vaguely recall that Barry White either played on or produced that record at a ridiculously young age.

Thanks for the report. Was it crowded? I assume the atmosphere there would be different than last week's in Walnut Creek, where it was full in that outdoor courtyard, but a mellow crowd. I was able to get on-air to ask 'Romo' a couple questions; mshray and I got pics with Morey (see avatar) while he was trying to have a cig out back.

The KPOO oldies guy did a tribute Monday nite -- Earl Nelson had quite a career, actually:

from your pics and report, I think the setting and venue in WC was better suited. Looks like you had some fun: not too many personalized photo opps at 21st, I'd say. The bar takes up a lot of space right near the front door, and the morning crew setup was around the bar and then against the side wall, so getting close to them meant trying to get past the doorway area (where aa lot of folks were standing, including me most of the time) and then trying to find a table (hard to do) or a place to stand that wasn't in the way of the staff trying to serve paying patrons.
During the Air Guitar bit, the bar tender (owner?) was telling his co-workers "I'm better than that," -- and he was serious. The air guitar guy flopped onto the bar and played the solo to Journey's "Anyway You Want It" while on his back, then scooted his mouth under one of the beer taps and gave himself a taste. The barkeep seemed this close to going after him. that was one of the highlights for me... heh heh. Crowd was nice, having fun. did I mention the free coffee and bagels? bonus.
